Into the sun

Could not decide between the two photos i took today, i like the previous one but for some reason i like looking at this one, probably because i remember how warm the sun was, the peace in the air as the the wind whistled through the trees, strange how it is the emotions tied to an image can make it better than something that is technically a better image, i used to read many photography forums but these days i don't, the endless of what are know as "measurebators" who seem to rate an image on the gear it was taken on and it's technical composition, sure it is a good photo maybe? but maybe we are not looking past our cameras at the art that is before us if we don't it would not be a passage for the moment, that is all we photographers do, we capture the moment and provide a passage for all to visit it.
Mleh rant over sorry, just shut up and shoot!
